I am a chemistry major in my junior year. I started research in material science my sophomore year of college at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. As an intern, I learned a lot about nuclear waste glass and realized that I wanted to focus on the chemistry aspect. Outside of work and school and I have three awesome dogs whom I take care of with my spouse. When I am neither working or at school, we will usually be up in the mountains, on the beach, or looking for great wine across eastern Washington.
